too much has been going on, but then it feels like too litle is happening.
it feels like im in a transitional stage again, trying to pinpoint my identity. a 'now i'm 20 oh f*ck' identity crisis, if you will. its at a time like this that i'm actually glad for army, that there's someplace else for me to be than home and out in 'the real world'. staying in camp is like an escape from everything else, its an escape into a world where i can just let loose and not give a damn about anything other than what needs to be done in camp, and my driving at night. i guess sometimes i just want to be alone. not alone alone, but away from all the hassles of organising supper/movie outings, of jio-ing ppl out; of going places and meeting people. i just wish to be free. be free from all this 'social' stuff. be free from having to worry about what im going to be doing. be free from the strain of friendships i try to maintain.
just a brief update on life... been going for driving lessons almost three to four times a week now... i cant wait to drive. i just love the feeling of being in the driving seat, one hand on the gear, one hand on the steering wheel, left foot on the clutch, right foot on the accelerator/brake... but most of all its the way you lose yourself in the moment, where everything is just in the background and you focus on the road, the cars, the people. your own car. you are in complete control of where you want to go, how you get there, how fast you move. its just pure bliss.
apart from my driving heaven (heh).. went to fun-o-rama on sat. 2 years on and ac's still going strong (i love the feeling of being an alumni).. was just great to see familiar faces, new faces, juniors seniors. bought myself 2 shirts and a nice set of keychains too.. =)
lastly... it struck me that i no longer have any idea of where God is in my life. its easy to say that He's carrying me at this point.. but from my perspective, i cant see Him. im lost... but at the same time im not really trying to find myself either. strangely... it doesnt feel weird or awkward. and at this point... i dont really know what to do. and i doubt that any advice will help either so... dont bother? no matter how you put it... it just feels like something i have to deal with myself.
我一路向北 离开有你的季节
方向盘周围 回转着我的后悔
我加速超越 却甩不掉紧紧跟随的伤悲
。 。 。
停止狼狈 就让错纯粹

haha kinda similar to an earlier 'five of blahblah' thingy i've done... but oh well.
for ashley, in particular =p
Name five of life's simple pleasures that you like most, then pick five people to do the same. Try to be original and creative and not use things that someone else has already used:
1. that feeling of sheer.. tranquility the moment you fall asleep. its at that exact moment that everything leaves you, all your troubles and worries, all your pain and sorrow. its when u start to float away into... well. 'lala land' haha. =) i love my sleep.
2. thinking. haha what i mean is like to really sit down and ponder. be it in discussions about philosophy or what not, or even simple stuff like 'how does this work'. i like the thrill of coming to a conclusion, and the content u feel when you've learnt something new and fascinating.
3. i love my music. can't live without it. 'nuff said. can't leave my house without my shuffle/walkman
4. those friday nights at holland village suppering, enjoying a cup of tea at essential brews. but most of all the company.
5. and hmm. be it day or night, just looking at the sky sets my free from all my worries. nothing beats looking at the noon sun beaming through fluffy white clouds, nothing beats a lovely full moon and the yellow stars at night. i even love it when the sky is grey and pouring rain. i love my sky!
so yeah... supposed to choose 5 people to do this. but thats so lousy, so i want everyone to do it =p
and yup. its book in time! get to book out tmrw though, battalion off on v'day haha. and KUSHINBO TMRW! muahaha i love my sushi buffet.
